This is what the Second Vatican Council proposed. This is also the central contention of Pope John Paul's blueprint for the third millennium, Novo Millennia 'To make the church the home and the school of that is the great challenge facing us in the millennium which is now beginning.' (43). Living a Spirituality of Communion presents some core elements of a spirituality of communion. In doing so it looks at the commandment Jesus calls both 'his' and 'new', the true measure of Christian love, divine revelation, and a fresh understanding of reality, including economics, in terms of a trinitarian ontology.
